    This is the Email I got from the great so to speak Heritage Sports

    Dear 74213

    We have completed a review of your account and based on your style of play, classified your account as NON RECREATIONAL.

    Effective immediately, you will have limits that are $500 on game sides and $250 on totals. 1st and 2nd half wagers will also have a maximum wager limit of $250 and the account is restricted from playing parlays or teasers.

    We hope you understand this is a business decision that we had to make at this time and if you decide to continue to play with Heritage Sports it will be with the limits as outlined above.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Talk about only wanting perennial losers and I didn't even take them for too much..so guys that have been wanting so badly to get in-don't get too excited they will limit you in an instance if they see your not in this to lose but rather to win.

    I played strictly 2nd halves and only won like a little bit over $7,000 and already showing me the door and only bet there when their line was better than what I can get at Matchbook.

    I see you're still able to do $500 straights. Does this mean you can still bet the "Get out at Halftime" promo?

    Maybe they see you as a threat for them in the long run. So they stop you now before they lose more. At least you getting paid.

    Exactly. If you're going to hammer soft HT lines, any respectable Book is going to limit you. Mix some straight bets with your sharp action and Heritage will leave your limits alone. I know this to be true, because Heritage actually raised my limits after meeting my RO last summer--despite coming off one of my hottest runs ever in MLB.

    I said at another forum that if I got an invite from Heritage, that would be a sign that my sportsbetting was going in the wrong direction (bigger plays, and losing them), and I would consider retiring.

    They saw that you were betting smart/sharp, and they cut you before you really tagged that ass.
    Oh, well.

    Before I was banned from Covers.com for lambasting most of their sponsors with concrete, indisputable negative highlights, Lou from Covers claimed to offer me a special invitation to Heritagesports, as is supposedly an invite only Book. When I asked Lou what's so special about them, could never get a response. It was like I called his bluff, and the only interest was getting a referral bonus if I signed up using his link. In any case, fact is, Heritagesports mailed me an invitation like 2 years prior, which I declined after calling them to ask some questions first. One question I asked, pertained to their publishing on their site that they "offer the most lucrative bonuses in the industry." I said, "great, so what is your bonus that is the most lucrative in the industry." I mean if you're able to make such a bold statement, not only do you have to back it up, you'd be elated to do so. When they told me what their bonus was, I respectfully informed them of other well know A rated books that offer a better bonus to what they were offering me. So then I asked if they're going to take down the wrong, false, misleading, untrue statement that they publish on their site. To make the story shorter, basically, they hung up on me and that was all she wrote.

    I'll ask again, this time to you ... what exactly makes Heritage "by far the best book there is?"

    Man you are clueless. Turning down an offer to join Heritage was the dumbest move ever--many here literally beg for an invite. Here are the answers that Lou from Covers didn't give you. At the time you could have signed up, I believe they had a 20% cash bonus plus a free deposit replacement deal--which means you get your first deposit replaced if you lose it. They did so for me, giving back my original $2000. As far as actually betting, I enjoy 108 straights and the best parlay odds in the business (14/5 for 2-teamers,6.5:1 for three teamers and so on). Plus they throw in free contests every week. BTW, I forgot their best promo--Get out of your bet at Halftime. Once or twice a month they allow you the choice to dump or keep your bet on a selected game at HT, up to $500. Nobody has the perks that Heritage offers and you pissed it away. Hate to be you.

    took you long enough. Normally you and Fishhead are all over the Heritage threads.

    Heritage is not the best book, because they will only take certain losing players. They're afraid of the action of normal gamblers.

    Not impressed with the hoopla. Was looking for something like, they always offer money lines, whether the game is -2 or -12. They offer halftime lines on all games they offer a game line. They have low juice, like instead of -110 they're -105. They have same day payout service. They don't charge fees for VC deposits. They post their lines early, preferrable the night before, and keep their lines available until the game actually starts. Bonus, odds for teasers/parlays and the once a month halftime gimmick are of no interest to me.

    Always seems to be a paid shill who goes out of their way to defend the book. Bottom line, they published something on their site that was a lie, and I concretely proved it to them, and still gave them the opportunity to fess up and simply take down or re-word their bogus statement. Instead, they became furious with me like who am I to question them the untouchbles. On another note, never trust a book that doesn't publicly display their odds. What's the secret? If their odds were fair, decent, much less good or great, why not share them like everyone else does? With a book that conceals general info to the public, something sure smells fishy.

    And for the record, are you ok if they publish lies on their site? If they lie on a simple promo, Lord knows what else they lie about, right?
